The ongoing software adventures of Julian Biddle

Monthly Archives: January 2009

By the time you read this blog post, I’ll be gone. I’m sorry for doing this but you left me no other choice. I know comes as a bit of a shock to you – especially because things have been going so well. But I’m sorry – I cant stand watching all those iPhone users giggling in the corridors anymore. I think you’re swell, but I don’t think we’re right for each other. First of all, we’re not compatible. You’re a a bit too clunky and I’ve lost patience. Secondly, I’m tired of waiting for Windows Mobile 7. It’s too late isn’t it?

Anyway, I want to try another smart phone. But you know what? I still want to be friends. We had some good times, developing software on the brilliant compact framework. I’m very sad it has to be this way. But please, don’t cold boot like last time. Maybe I could still answer questions on the Compact Framework from time to time. I still code in .net! Look I wont even make issue of the fact that I had to buy you a replacement battery.
